    Peanut curry special of the day
    Paige T.

    Solid but not outstanding Thai food in Idaho. I was super impressed by the quick service- we walked in, ordered, and our food was ready about 10 minutes later (and super hot/fresh!) They clearly do a lot of takeout orders and are efficient, but we ate in. The fresh spring rolls had 2 delicious sauces- highly recommended. They used chicken instead of shrimp, but that didn't deter me. The chicken satay was well-seasoned. Drunken noodles were spicy at a 2/5 spice level, but were missing depth of flavor. My husband loved the peanut curry special of the day, and the two-compartment takeout container was helpful in combining the curry and rice. I'd return and try a different noodle dish, and get the yummy spring rolls again.

    We went for a quick lunch date today and got to try a few things on their lunch menu. Their lunch menu ranges from $8-$11 and you can get an appetizer, entree, and drink for $11. The pad thai and drunken noodle were very good. We both chose a 3/5 on spice and it didn't disappoint . Definitely will come back!!

    Pad Thai

    I got the pad Thai lunch special to-go twice in one week. It was less than $12 for a huge serving of pad Thai, an eggroll, a wonton, and a drink!! Service was very friendly both times I went in, I did order online and take it to go so I haven't spent much time inside but it looks very clean and very happy vibes. HIGHLY RECCOMEND!!!!!!

    Crab Rangoon for the win

    Thai Zap is hands down the best Thai food in Pocatello! This restaurant is always consistent on fantastic flavors. If you like spicy food, Thai Zap has the best heat level and can give you true heat when you ask for a 5! Their menu even offers gluten free alternatives. Some of my go-to favorites are red curry, drunken noodles, and pad thai. During my recent visit, one member of my party wanted their red curry a little sweeter and they happily accommodated by adding pineapple. Thai Zap staff are friendly and attentive! If you are in need of some Thai comfort food, this is your place!

    You can't go wrong here! This truly is the best Thai food in Southeast Idaho. Whenever I'm passing through Pocatello I stop at this place. They used to be a food truck but now opened a permanent location. If you like authentic Thai, you will like this place. The fresh spring rolls are amazing. The peanut sauce is delicious. All of the curries I have had are awesome. The Pad Thai is also great.

    Awesome Thai food. In town from Boise on business and follow the recommendation of a fellow Yelper. Green curry chicken and drunken noodles were awesome. Combo it with drink and crab Rangoon or spring rolls for just a dollar or two more. Great deal. Staff and owner were very friendly. Would come back anytime!!

    really good pad see ew. Green curry was good - order at medium spice. Pad Thai also good but a tad on the sweeter side if you're into that

    It was closed. Not sure if it has been open in awhile. Drove clear across town as a visitor. Sadly disappointed.

    Just settled in Pocatello from Hawaii where Thai food is plentiful. I was impressed with Thai Zap! The female staff was very friendly, too.

    My family of 6 eats everything family style, this allows us to try it all :-)…read more We had... *Corn chowder(very good, but seemed pricey for the size, especially in comparison to other items), this was served with thin slices of grilled bread instead of crackers, which was amazing!!! *Blondie mac&cheese. This is super yum!! With bacon?!?!?! Extra indulgent!! So good!! *Palate burger. Bacon jam? Yes, please! Pickle Aioli? Interesting, sign me up! This was a yummy burger, although I never did find the cheese on it....yet still happily ate my piece. *Ambitious Blonde Burger. I would have preferred a bit more beer cheese-or maybe a 2nd type of cheese too? but it was still very yummy!! The generous amount of yummy bacon made up for any smaller amount of cheese ;-) *Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich. Super yum, although we are used to more of an oil based "sauce" and this was something else. Still good, still spicy, just not super authentic(we lived in the Nashville/Huntsville area for a decade) *Pulled pork Sandwich. Super good. Sauce seems homemade, great compliment to the sandwich! *Smoked Tri-tip Sandwich. Really good. The bbq sauce, toppings make it next level! This is coming from someone who never understood the hype of tri-tip(when living in CA), but finally did-just took going to ID to figure it out ;-) *Cuban Sandwich. This was good. Had the pulled pork from above & was very yummy!! Condiments once again took it to the next level! Exactly what it should be! *Pretzel Bites. These were served with beer cheese & super yum, kids loved them! Everything was amazing & we cannot wait to go back for more!! All 4 kids loved everything!!

    I got a recommendation from an old friend to come here while in town. We accidentally went to the…read morelocation at Jim Dandy's Brewing. When we walked in the server insisted that we sit inside instead of going out back. I wish we had gone out back to the truck, our server was super attentive but we felt a bit forced to buy a drink from them and ordering via the bistro QR code from the table was a little clunky. We were also traveling and the drink menu from Jim Dandy's didn't tickle our fancy. My husband got the Piggyback Burger with truffle fries and it was delicious! All of the flavors went well together and were plentiful. I had the pork tacos and the brussel sprouts. The brussels could've feed four people and were a bit on the very well done side. The tacos were full of meat but just okay and the chimichurri was nothing to write home about. The location was clean and quiet. Loads of seating inside and had some fun decor touches. Maybe we'll head to the other location next time we are in the area.
